Experience the benefits of nature right at your fingertips!
Upon arrival at the field, you will be greeted by Martine, who will introduce you to the surroundings and share her passion for flowers, plants, and her eco-friendly approach. Get ready to uncover the behind-the-scenes of an organic farm!
Then, it's time to get hands-on! You'll put your freshly acquired knowledge into practice, following the schedule and season. Engage in sowing seeds and taking cuttings of flowers, vegetables, and/or herbs. You'll also learn about the appropriate harvesting and preservation methods for each plant type.
And here's the cherry on top: Martine won't let you leave empty-handed! You'll craft and take home a seasonal planter to nurture and cherish in your own home.
Workshop location
La Finca farm is located on the Perkstraat, the cycle path connecting the Auderghem path to the Limite street. The farm is only accessible on foot or by bike. There is a large car park a hundred metres away in front of the golf club. You can also reach the farm by taking tram 39 to the BanEik stop.

Meet Martine
Florist and Gardener
Before delving into the world of plants, particularly flowers, Martine had several enriching professional experiences in large companies. However, a few years ago, she embarked on an evening course where she found a space to express her creativity, learn various techniques, and gain confidence. This led her to take the leap and enter the extraordinary realm of flowers and design.
Through her selection of fresh and dried flowers, beautiful foliage, and berries, Martine brings out the true beauty of weddings, home interiors, and businesses with her unique creations. She has honed her skills through internships and experiences in stores, immersing herself in the fascinating world of floral artistry.
In addition, Martine is a gardener who assists urban dwellers in cultivating their own small piece of land, reconnecting them with seasonal cycles and promoting sustainable approaches to food and decoration. Adopting an eco-responsible mindset is of utmost importance to her.
With boundless passion, Martine shares her knowledge through workshops that revolve around the art of floral design and gardening. Participants are inspired to embrace the beauty of nature and learn practical skills in creating stunning floral arrangements. Martine's workshops are a wonderful opportunity to explore the world of flowers and plants while fostering a sustainable and eco-friendly mindset.

Belle expérience de jardinage éco-responsable. Martine nous fair découvrir sa passion des fleurs et des plantes dans un grand champs. On se reconnecte à la nature, ça fait du bien et on redemande ! Je conseille vivement.

Super chouette matinée avec Martine! Nous avons appris beaucoup de choses pour débuter notre jardin (avec des fleurs, des fruits ou des légumes), tout cela dans un cadre très joli et accessible. Une bonne petite parenthèse! Super de pouvoir également ramener chez soi des semis et boutures pour directement mettre en application ses bons conseils. Je recommande!
